    MultiCell Technologies is Granted U.S. Patent for Immortalized Human Liver Cell Lines






    MultiCell Strengthens Its Liver Cancer Drug Target Identification and Cancer Stem Cell Research Program


    WOONSOCKET, R.I., Aug. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MultiCell Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MCET) announced today it has been granted U.S. patent 7,566,567 by the United States of America Patent and Trademark Office covering its Fa2N-4 and Ea1C-35 immortalized human hepatocyte cell lines.

    The Fa2N-4 and Ea1C-35 immortalized human hepatocyte cell lines were derived from normal human liver cells, and are nontumorigenic, stable in culture, and produce therapeutic plasma proteins in cell culture. The Fa2N-4 cell line has also been engineered to function as a proxy for normal human liver cells for use in performing drug toxicity assays. MultiCell has licensed several pharmaceutical companies rights to use the Fa2N-4 cell line for drug toxicity applications including Pfizer, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Eisai Pharmaceuticals. MultiCell licensed Corning, Inc. to sell the Fa2N-4 cell line and media within the drug discovery and life science research markets for drug toxicity (Tox) applications as well as for drug adsorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) studies. MultiCell retained worldwide exclusive ownership of the Fa2N-4 and Ea1C-35 cell lines for all applications other than ADME/Tox, including drug target identification and using the cell lines for the production of therapeutic plasma proteins.

    MultiCell also owns exclusive worldwide rights to two issued U.S. patents (6,872,389 and 6,129,911), one U.S. patent application (U.S. 2006/0019387A1), and several corresponding issued and pending foreign patents and patent applications related to the isolation and differentiation of human liver stem cells. MultiCell previously announced it had entered into a cooperative research and development agreement with Maxim Biotech, Inc. to develop products for the study of human liver stem cells and human liver cancer.

    The role of liver stem cells in the carcinogenic process has recently led to a new hypothesis that hepatocellular carcinoma in humans arises by maturation arrest of liver stem cells. "MultiCell intends to use its human liver cell and liver stem cell assets to identify therapeutic targets and new drug candidates specifically targeting the treatment of primary liver cancer and intrahepatic bile duct cancer," said Jerry Newmin, Chairman & CEO of MultiCell Technologies. "We believe our engineered human liver cell lines will play an important role as proxies for normal human liver cells in our effort to identify drug targets."

    The National Cancer Institute (NCI) in 2008 stated there were approximately 21,400 new cases of hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic bile duct cancer in the United States, and approximately 18,400 of those cases resulted in death. Hepatocellular carcinoma, resulting from Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C infection, is the most common cancer in some parts of the world, with more than 1 million new cases diagnosed each year. The NCI also reports that hepatocellular carcinoma is associated with cirrhosis of the liver in 50% to 80% of patients.

    MultiCell Technologies Launches New Web Site
    Jul 30, 2010 7:00:00 AM
    WOONSOCKET, R.I., July 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MultiCell Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MCET) has launched a new website with a fresh new look and updated information about discovery technology platforms and lead drug candidates. It also provides information to answer investors' most common questions.

    "The new website is designed to inform our shareholders, scientists and the public about the Company's proprietary therapeutic pipeline which could fill critical unmet medical needs," stated W. Gerald Newmin, Chairman and CEO of MultiCell.

    About MultiCell Technologies, Inc.
    MultiCell Technologies, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics and discovery tools to address unmet medical needs for treatment of neurological disorders, hepatic disease and cancer.

    MultiCell's therapeutic development platform relies on patented techniques to: (i) isolate, characterize and differentiate stem cells from the human liver, or (ii) control the immune response at transcriptional and translational levels through dsRNA-sensing molecules such as Toll-like receptor (TLR), RIG-I-like receptor (RLR), and MDA-5 signaling, or (iii) generate specific and potent immunity against key tumor targets through a novel immunoglobulin treatment, or (iv) modulate the noradrenaline-adrenaline neurotransmitter pathway.

    MultiCell's drug candidates are in various stages of discovery optimization, and preclinical and clinical development:

    •MCT-125 is a Phase 2 therapeutic candidate for treatment of fatigue in MS patients, which has demonstrated efficacy in a 138-patient Phase IIa clinical trial.
    •MCT-465 is a preclinical synthetic dsRNA therapeutic candidate and potent immune enhancer for the treatment of solid tumor cancers such as those expressing TLR-3.
    •MCT-475 is a discovery stage antibody therapeutic candidate for use in combination with dsRNA for the treatment of solid tumor cancers.
    •MCT-485 is a discovery stage dsRNA therapeutic candidate with tumor cytolytic properties for the treatment of certain cancers.

    Ah er is ook gewoon een draadje van. Bij deze opgehaald.

    Koers stijgt gestaag, boekje lijkt behoorlijk dun. Zojuist de HOD op 0,0083 gezet.
  4. Demenkovets 2 februari 2011 20:17
    zou goed kunnen, daar ligt wel ongeveer de high. was inmiddels flink gezakt weer, mogelijk een rebound weer tot over de cent.
  5. Demenkovets 2 februari 2011 20:26
    dat is waar. misschien was dat ook wel de stimulans om me er eens enigszins in te verdiepen.

    84 bied nu, ligt nog wel wat op de 85 op de ask. daarna niks meer.
